1st - I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard ChuckTheBull! Take a look at Forum: California for information (i.e., clubs, etc.) directly related to your state.

I may be wrong, but I think that would be classified as a WWII era "sweetheart" pin or brooch. The Great Seal with enamel was typical of that sorta pin. I have never seen one quite as ornate as yours, though.

Very Nice! :icon_thumright:

There are different background colors In the "Great Seal" to indicate the different offices that issued the medal. One color may indicate agency level, another may indicate the senate or house and yet another represents the President. This is used to identify the level of contribution or service. If you're in the wrong place wearing the wrong color, you just might get shoved down the laundry chute!
